I used to hate short form content in principle
but YT shorts actually shows me content from creators I like. sometimes I like browsing it, because some of that content is well suited to the format rather than dragging it out into a five minute video
what I fucking HATE is when YouTube opens up to the shorts page and just autoplays. it's inconsistent and idk why it does that
now, why the shorts format is here, and we can't just mix the short videos with the long ones in the same library... idk
